OK - specifically does anyone out there own any of the following:

A bright yellow panel van T2 bay, a dark green and white camper bay (these two park next to each other most mornings!)?

A dark blue and white bay camper heading back to Leeds in the evening, or a green and white bay with a bright orange gerbera on the wheel cover also heading back to Leeds?

A powder blue splitty heading into Leeds in the morning?

Hi there!  That's great.  I only wrote about those vans because at least two of them have Club stickers in the windows - I checked one of them while it was parked and the sticker count is rising... 

We're a bit busy now, taking the club shop to three different events on three consecutive weekends, but I think it would be good to publish a date and a location and see who turns up. 

Watch this space!

Do you happen to know what it was that caused Shelley to end up on a tow truck?  It does help you get started!  ;)

If you can identify the problem, we can start to help you.  In Leeds, there is a parts supplier called German Swedish French (a.k.a. GSF) on Kirkstall Road near Eddie Wright's motorbike stores.  If you are a Club member and show your membership card, you might be able to get some discount if you know what parts you need.

If the repairs are beyond your abilities with a spanner, then you could go to Herbie Hospital which is near St James' hospital - the exact address I will have to find and get back to you, unless you Google it.  Make sure, though, that you get a competitive quote.  I am loathe to promote Herbie Hospital just because they do classic VWs, because it may be that somewhere else specialising in the kind of problem you have could do the repairs just as easily.

If you are brave and have a bit of technical experience or common sense, quite a few fairly vital repair jobs are possible with a manual and a few tools. 

I'm sure that if you are Club members, the technical team will be able to give you more in-depth help.  You can email or call them using the details in the Club magazine, Transporter Talk. 

If we were available over the next two weeks, we might even come around and give you some assistance!

hi there! another member in the area!im over ilkley side of leeds,with a 76 orange import westfalia.[girlfriend has a last edition beetle 78] and we would love to meet up with other fans of the aircooled scene. anyone going to vanfest?

If anyone is interested how does the first Wednesday in the month sound for a meet at Roundhay Park in Leeds (September 3rd). There is plenty of parking, plenty of take-aways restaurants, and pubs nearby and its fairly easy to get to. I was thinking about 7PM. If anyone wants to come or choose a more appropriate venue please post and lets 'get it on !'
